Other New Artist Digital Support Group

[buzzcut]

Hello everyone! I’m a budding online artist, realizing that it’s super hard to start getting the word out about your work! I wanted to start a little community who can tell each other about themselves, their goals, aspirations, and maybe some socials where we can show each other support and give some advice while we’re starting out!

So, I guess I’ll go first.

On here, I’m buzz: usually I go by @eydmans on all platforms and one of my goals is to start being more active on instagram and DeviantArt. I’m a trad and digital artist and love using pencil and pen textures, black and white, kind of spooky, but I also some cute, kid-aimed illustrations. I’m hoping to get over my fear of practice and maybe start selling some prints soon! You can check out my commission thread here and my ko-fi is linked in my signature.

How about yourself?​

Hiya! I'm Dai.
I've been drawing ever since I could hold a crayon, no one could stop me, so here I am
I've also given myself over to roleplay for essentially the last decade. These are my two primary hobbies, and they're ones I'm highly passionate about, illustrated by how I continued both throughout my course of chemo, wherein I was unable to do pretty much anything else.

I'm learning animation slowly but surely, I am working on a short film, and all that effort is a stepping stone to hopefully become a writer/showrunner on my own show. I like to think I have some really cool ideas, plotlines, and character arcs that are worth telling

That's me!

Hello! My name is Wild!

I like to make lotsa cartoony art, and I just draw whatever comes to my brain. Mostly, I draw my own characters having adventures, but I also love to draw my friends OCs, as well as characters from fandoms!

Hey, my name is Maime and I am an artist.

My favorite art to do is cartoons and comics, my style is a little bit anime and a little bit Don Bluth. I like storytelling through art in frames and scenes. I have a flare for the dramatic but at the end of the day I am lazy and end up going for a punchline. Just the past couple of years I FINALLY got an iPad and started drawing digitally. Took to it like water(after watching a few YouTube procreate tutorials).

The art that is easiest for me to do is art I both love and hate: hyper realistic sketch portraiture. I love the end result, I love making people happy but I am not the biggest fan of the process. I literally turn my brain off listening to YouTube videos or watching TV and become a human photo copier machine. It takes the least amount of imagination from me to do this kind of artwork, the least amount of problem solving but it is by far my strongest gift artistically.

All in all though, when people ask me what I do, I call myself a painter. My home is with oils but I don't mind acrylics. I used to do murals for a bit but then just couldn't find anyone serious enough to pay for that kind of art. Now I mostly paint for myself and dark surrealist stuff like dead circuses and murderous horses; you know, stuff nobody wants to buy because why in Kier's name would anyone hang that on their wall?

Spoiler: 'sup my arty pals!
